How attendees reach it

O'Hare International Airport (ORD) is 21 km (13 mi) out, a standard transfer of twenty to forty minutes outside rush hour.

This is an out-of-centre venue — 11 km (6.9 mi) from the middle of Chicago — which usually buys you parking and load-in access in exchange for a transport plan.

Chicago has 231 venues mapped in total and a population of 2,721,308. The Chicago guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.

Programming it

A fixed-seat house suits a single-track programme: keynotes, panels, award ceremonies and film. It does not suit a trade floor, banqueting or anything that needs the seats to move, so pair it with a nearby function room if you need both.

  • award ceremonies

    Fixed seating, sightlines and a lighting rig are the hard parts, and they are already here.

  • product launches

    A single-track room with a real stage is the right shape for a launch.

  • multi-track conferences

    Works as a plenary house with breakouts booked elsewhere in the city.
